The correct answer is option a, that is, sedimentary rock.

There are three main kinds of rock on Earth: igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary.

The sedimentary rock envelopes about three-quarters of the land on the surface of the Earth. However, sedimentary rock forms only about 5 percent of the top 16 kilometers of the crust of the Earth. The other 95 percent comprises of metamorphic and igneous rocks.

Sedimentary rock is malleable of the three kinds of rock. Thus, it is the quickest to erode.

If an enzyme has a single optimal temperature, then an organism might have difficulty dealing with an environment with wide temp
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Having a repetitive enzyme system would allow more than one enzyme to catalyze a particular reaction. If one of the types of enzyme is not able to perform its function due to temperature or any other factor, then another kind of enzyme would be able to catalyze the reaction. Hence, having repetitive enzyme systems is very effective in carrying out the metabolic functions of the body even when conditions are not favourable.

Choose the correct sequence of the prokaryotic operon. A) gene, operator, promoter B) promoter, operator, gene C) operator, prom
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B, that is, promoter, operator, gene.

Explanation:

In a prokaryote, just in front of the operator, the promoter is located, and just in front of the structural genes, the operator is located. All these in combination give rise to an operon.  

Any gene, which codes for an enzyme or a structural protein is termed as a structural gene, in the lac operon, a structural gene codes for three distinct kinds of enzymes. A short sequence of DNA is situated just in front of the structural gene, which is known as the operator. An operator functions as a switch for transcription, that is, it monitors whether the process of transcription will take place or not.  

Just in front of an operator, a sequence of a promoter is present, and for the transcription and translation of all the structural genes, the RNA polymerase needs to combine first with the promoter. In case, if no transcription is to take place, then the operator allows the repressor to bind with it and prevent the attachment of RNA polymerase with the promoter. Hence, the correct sequence of a prokaryotic operon is a promoter, operator, and gene.
